WX = WY
4x+3 = 7x-66
3x = 69
x = 23
WX = 95 = WY
XY = 5*23-7 = 108

Is the line y = 3x – 7 parallel or perpendicular to 3x + 9y = 9? Explain your answer.

Roman55 [17]

Y = 3x - 7...slope here is 3 and y int is -7

3x + 9y = 9
9y = -3x + 9
y = -1/3x + 1....slope here is -1/3 and y int is 1

the slopes 3 and -1/3 are negative reciprocals of each other...therefore, ur lines are perpendicular

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

<u>22 counselors</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

<u>1. Ratio of campers to counselors in june:</u>

number of campers: 325

number of counselors: 26

Ratio = number of campers / number of counselors

Ratio = 325 campers / 26 counselors

<u />

<u>2. Ratio of campers to counselors in july:</u>

number of campers = 325 - 265 + 215 = 275

number of counselors = x (unknown)

Ratio = 275 campers / x

<u />

<u>3. Equivalent ratios:</u>

325 campers / 26 counselors = 275 campers / x

Solve for x:

x = (26counselors/325campers) × 275campers = 22 counselors ← answer
